but does granparent commenter find it off putting now that he realized it's not content viral? It's weird that it's not today's Oracle or Microsoft equivalent spreading the FUD/false info nowadays but developers in discussions on this very site. AGPL explicitly does not touch the content it processes, I expect a legal department to be pretty good at understanding that unless they heard something and don't bother to read the license. Anyway I don't really care anymore. We act based on what we believe not on facts (this is not directed to any parent comments, to be clear). Whatever

Again, I think the two of you are arguing on different levels. You're saying AGPL shouldn't be offputting. He's saying that by some quirk of circumstance, it is. In other words, his argument is that picking AGPL was a poor strategic decision, given its (admittedly undeserved) baggage.
